Join us at Cafe 3:30, our monthly cafe style service, as we continue our Bible Superhero theme for the rest of the year. From Noah to Rahab, the boy who shared his picnic to Jesus Himself!
Church is set out cafe style with delicious cakes and activity sheets as you arrive. We have a Bible story, a short talk, two crafts, interactive prayer activities, themed play activity and two upbeat songs played on the keyboard by Rev Neil (think My Lighthouse!). It’s relaxed, informal and lasts up to an hour.
Here’s what’s on at our two churches this week. Everyone’s welcome - just turn up.

The Table 2:42 is our relaxed, cafe-style gathering for adults - coffee, contemporary music, reflective visuals, and honest conversation about life’s big questions. Whether you’re exploring faith or simply curious, there’s a place for you at the table.
We're a friendly Church of England benefice made up of two parish churches in neighbouring villages - Holy Trinity & St Oswald's in Finningley and St Saviour's in Auckley. Whether you've been coming for years or you're popping in for the first time, you'll find a warm welcome.
Our services range from traditional Holy Communion to relaxed, contemporary worship. There's live music, there's good coffee, and there's always someone happy to chat. We believe church should feel like coming home.
From traditional communion to lively family events, there's something for everyone. Our services are a mix of hymns, contemporary songs, and a lot of heart.
